Welcome to Middle Earth! In this edition of "The Real World Geology of..." we will be exploring the vast and complex landscape of New Zealand aka Middle Earth! Home to our favorite wizards, warriors and humble Hobbits. Our journey will take us from the peaceful green hillsides of Hobbiton, past the ancient watchtower of Weathertop, through the Elf forests of Rivendell and Lothlorien, over the mountain peak of Caradras, down the winding river Anduin, across the wide plains of Rohan, beyond the shimmering Pelennor Fields of Gondor and through the desolate land of Mordor. Together we discover just what makes the Islands of New Zealand some of our worlds most precious places and learn about the tremendous forces of nature that created these amazing locations. Our class we will learn from an interactive slide presentation full of unique looks at the geology and geography of New Zealand, combined with images and video clips straight from the movies themselves, as well as some amazing behind the scenes footage! Students will be able to share their knowledge of the films, answer and ask questions and learn how to discern between some of the real locations and scenes shot exclusively in the movie studios.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello there! My name is Sean and I love to teach fun, engaging classes generally centered around history, science, and storytelling! Many of my classes involve some type of activity, story-telling, reading, writing or some other unique assignment (such as map-making!) to help students feel more invested in the material and get excited about learning more each day.
The people I learn the most from and respect the most are those who are truly passionate and engaged with the subjects they love. This is where Outschool shines because no one is forced to teach a class they don't like or teach in a way that isn't interesting to them! I find that when teachers can effectively communicate their passion about subjects to their students everyone is uplifted and comes away having grown smarter and wiser.
With every class my goal is to help your students develop powerful habits that transcend the courses they take with me. Creative thinking, reading comprehension, creative and persuasive writing, pattern recognition and logic are just some of the talents students will develop over the duration of the courses they choose. I can't wait to start working together! See you soon!
